Jefferson’s copy was ordered from
Van Damme’s catalogue--vol. 2, pa. 235, in a letter dated March 23, 1788. The book was sent with others on June 25, 1788, price
4.10. It is entered at this price on Jefferson’s undated manuscript catalogue, but as 2 v. 16s instead of 2 v. 12mo.
In Jefferson’s dated manuscript catalogue the entry for this book is followed immediately by the translations into
Italian and
French. In the 1815 Library of Congress catalogue the three books have become widely separated. The entry for this book is the last
instead of the first and, owing to a mistake on the part of the compositor, it is separated by nine entries from the
French edition to which it refers:
The same, Lat. 2. v. 12mo.
Famianus Strada, 1572-1649, Italian historian. This is the second Amsterdam counterfeit edition of this work, distinguished from the first
by the correct numbering of page 275 in vol. I. The work first appeared in Rome, in 1632, folio.
